Birthday in a Box

I have a friend I wanted to do something fun for on her birthday.  Year's ago, my friend Neka sent me a big box for my summer birthday (while I was home for the summer from college) with all the fixings for a great birthday.  I did it on a little bit smaller scale.  I saw a few little ideas like this, and decided I had to try it out.  I cut out a birthday banner with some scrap paper and strung it on a string.  

 Added candles, balloons, a little card, and some candy and fun 'party stuffing.'

 I bought this little clear box at the container store b/c it made it that much more fun.

 For the price of a card (less, really) I was able to add a stamp and mail this out.
